"candy molds?" Topic

I found some very interesting molds for things like trees, animals, and even some vehicles. I was wondering if anyone has tried to use these or similar plastic molds with model clay or green stuff? Just thinking it might be a cheap and easy way to make some scenery items.

i saw some in a shop recently that had star wars space ships in them, maybe ok in plaster.

I bought a plastic ice cube tray that made Easter Island heads, and used that with hydrocal. It worked fine.

So I have given this a try once so far with Mk model clay. I worked out okay, except it is hard to remove from the mold without the clay breaking up. Still working out that one.

Okay, after letting the mold sit in the freezer for a couple hours the clay hardened enough to remove in a single piece.
Next I am going to try some talc in the mold and see if that makes it easier to remove.

some links for the various mold mentioned here?

I found them on a sight called Sugercraft. I was looking for cheap trees and stumbled onto the candy molds.
